My Reverie [ORIGINAL RECORDINGS REMASTERED]

Bea Wain's major successful were as Larry Clinton's band singer, most famously with "My Reverie", one of four American number one hits. This compilation contains some of her Larry Clinton tracks and some of her solo music after she quit Larry's band, all in chronological order. Her solo tracks are not that different in style from her band music. Like so many of the band singers of her time, Bea could sing, though she could also do the love songs. The songs here include three of those number one hits: "My Reverie", "Heart And Soul" and "Deep Purple" though "Cry Baby Cry", their first number one is omitted. You can find it on a Larry Clinton compilation, along with many other hits they had together, some of which are also on this CD, but most are not. You may remember "Deep Purple", it was a big American hit for Nino Tempo and April Stevens in the sixties, and again for Donny and Marie Osmond in the Seventies, this is the version that is probably best known in Britain. Bea and Larry's band did one of the original versions. There were several versions released at around the same time (1939) but this version outsold them all, by a considerable margin. There are other big hits from her Larry Clinton days here too, "Old Folks", "The Masquerade Is Over" and "My Heart Belongs To Daddy", but most of this CD is filled with her solo music. Bea only had four solo hits, but only three of them "Do I Worry", "My Sister And I" and "Kiss The Boys Goodbye" are included. The other "I'm Nobody's Baby" is missing, but it doesn't matter, this is a brilliant compilation of Bea's music, Of the non-hits, "Oh, You Crazy Moon" is wonderful, as is each and every track. This unique Jasmine collection chronicles the sultry, modern sounding Miss Wain through the peak years of her career. 24 tracks running a very generous 73 minutes.

Though now known mainly for his middle-of-the-road balladry, Neil Diamond started his career in the '60s as a Tin Pan Alley pro who turned out a string of ballsy, folk-rock-styled classic Top 40 singles that may come as a surprise to anyone who's grown up with the image of Diamond as a sensitive crooner and Vegas showman. This 2 CD set contains all of his hits, but it isn't quite the definitive package that its title suggests. His early Bang singles (''Cherry, Cherry,'' ''Kentucky Woman,''

AUDIO CD - Title: GREATEST HITS - Audio CD Release Date: (October 25, 1990)- Number of Discs: 1 - Label: Sony - Artist: JOHNNY MATHIS If Columbia Records was trying to cash in quickly with this 1958 package before heartthrob Mathis's string ran out, the joke was--happily--on them, since it ended up staying on the Billboard charts for 490 weeks. These, of course, are his earliest smashes, and for the most part, his best: the likes of ''Chances Are'' and ''Wonderful! Wonderful!'' are young

The first full-length collaboration between Ella and Louis turned out just as sublime as one would imagine. Recorded in 1956, this historic LP finds them serenading each other with Cheek to Cheek; Isn't This a Lovely Day?; Can't We Be Friends?; Moonlight in Vermont; Tenderly , and more. What we have here is the mating of honey and molasses. Or is it the sound of melted butter over gravel? Never mind--sweeter, more joyous music has never been recorded (although the follow-up, Ella and Louis
